The Krisis Pick of the Week: Of course my pick is Absolute Martian Manhunter (2025) #2! Issue one was so damn good I wrote a whole song about it that I haven’t stopped singing for an entire month! But, there are a lot of great issues out from DC this week that I can’t wait to read. They’re crushing it right now.

This post includes every comic out from DC Comics April 23 2025, plus collected editions in omnibus, hardcover, paperback, and digest-sized formats.

This isn’t the typical comic releases post you can find on other sites. Why? I explain each collection and review every in-continuity series with a new issue out this week. Plus, for most new releases, I’ll point you to a personally-curated guide within the Crushing Comics Guide to DC Comics to find out how to collect that title in full!

There’s no other website on the internet that can claim that.

This week in DC Comics: Batman’s Absolute second arc, G. Willow Wilson’s superstar Superman, Finest Batgirl, Aquaman lost in The Blue, Deluxe Fudd by King & Weeks, Snyder & Tynion’s League hits omnibus, Lantern’s journey to the center of Thanagar, the Dark Patterns of a talking tower, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: I know I’m supposed to pick Batman: Dark Patterns (2024) #5 because we are all obsessed with Dark Patterns. And I’m sure it will be amazing, especially after last month’s final page! But, folks, I am just too dang curious about another final reveal from last month – the one that’s leading into Green Lantern Corps (2025) #3. After a gorgeous and super-tense issue #2, I absolutely need to know what’s going on with Thanagar’s unexpected golden center! I’m so curious I would pay extra to read it right now.

This post includes every comic out from DC Comics April 9 2025, plus collected editions in omnibus, hardcover, paperback, and digest-sized formats.

Absolute Wonder Woman (2024) #6, a DC Comics March 26 2025 new releaseNext week is the 13th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers DC Comics March 26 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering DC Comics March 19 2025 new releases.

This week in DC Comics: Camp’s Absolute Martian Manhunter debuts, Gunn’s Peacemaker, Taylor & Co’s final Nightwing collected, Diana’s Sovereign face-off concludes, Lex breaks bad, Golden Batman & Promethea reprints, Justice League tries to extinguish Inferno, a foul Harley Quinn one-shot, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: There’s only one answer for me – the reunion of one of my favorite creative teams of the past decade of comics, Kelly Thompson and Mattia De Iulis on Absolute Wonder Woman (2024) #6! To be fair, I’m also pretty damn excited about the continuing story in Green Arrow (2023) #22, but I absolutely lose my mind over any art from Mattia De Iulis, so seeing him credited on a Wonder Woman book is a dream come true for me!!!

Batman: Dark Patterns (2024) #4, a DC Comics March 12 2025 new releaseNext week is the 11th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers DC Comics March 12 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering DC Comics March 5 2025 new releases.

This week in DC Comics: Absolute destruction of Krypton, Finest Suicide Squad, Arrow in Omnibus, Black Lightning’s last strike, a new case full of Dark Patterns, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: This is too hard… there are two books that have been embedded in my Top 10 out this week! But, after a long deliberation, I think I have to pick Batman: Dark Patterns (2024) #4 over Absolute Superman (2024) #5. Dark Patterns just wrapped up a very satisfying first arc in three issues, whereas Absolute Superman is alternating a main story with origin issues – a publishing strategy I’m not wild about, even if all of the content is absolutely stellar.

Superman (2023) #23, a DC Comics February 26 2025 new releaseNext week is the 9th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers DC Comics February 26 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering DC Comics February 19 2025 new releases.

This week in DC Comics: Absolute Wonder Woman wraps up an arc, Taylor’s Batman gets more entangled, Morrison & Millar’s Flash goes Deluxe, Harley Pygs out, Spurrier’s very hard Hellblazer, Lois Lane is a super time-traveller, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: Joshua Willamson’s Superman (2023) #23 had reached the rare point that I’m thinking about the book randomly during unrelated moments of my day, wondering where he will take things next. I’m a sucker for a Doomsday story, especially one that plays with his origins and purpose. This is about as fun as Superman gets for me! However, it was a very close call between picking this and Batman: The Long Halloween – The Last Halloween (2024) #5 (of 10) – featuring The Joker as rendered by Bill Sienkiewicz.
